     The Walking Liberty Half Dollar, commonly known as the Walker, was designed by A. A. Weinman and was minted from 1916 to 1947. The full length of Miss Liberty has many areas where collectors look for "fullness", especially the head and the thumb. The reverse follows the same theme as the eagle takes up most of the area within the coin. The mintmarks were originally placed on the obverse in 1916 and 1917, but during 1917 they were changed to the reverse.



      Walking Liberty Halves were minted in Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. Philadelphia produced coins in 1916-21, 1934-47. Denver issued coins in 1916-21, 1929, 1934-39, 1941-47. San Francisco minted coins in 1916-21, 1923, 1927-29, 1933-37, 1939-46. As a group, the 1921 issues are the lowest mintage and are considered the keys to the set.
